the Express RObberles.

The express robberies on the Oregon
Short Line and at Pocatello still excite
much attention in railway and express
circles. The 10000 package from
Omaha to Butte, missed on Bennet's
run west from Granger, has mostly
turned up, something over 5000 having
been recovered from where it was cached
in the hills in Oregon, about four miles
from Huntington. The reason of not
finding all of it is because it was not
all cached in one hole. Bennet is in
Jail IN Blackfoot. The 800 package,
which was missed about the same time,
has not turned up yet. 1t was in transit
from the collecting agent of internal
revenue a. Boise to the general agent at
Helena, and was traced into Pocatello,
and Clerk Thomas A. Hartwell held
receipt fol the way-bill out of there from
the Utah & Northern messenger. Hart
well was clerk for the agent, John Hun
ter, and when asked about the package
got huffy and left the Office. Hunter
and Route Agents Johnson and Burch
spent two or three days checking up the
Office and found Hartwell $lS7 short.
Although being discharged, he was not
arrested at the. time. Later, Mr.. W. B.
Green, coal agent at Pocatello, thought
he had better look into his coal business,

HOman's Limitations.

In the September number of The
Forum the authur of John Halifax
Gentleinen' discusses the question of
wSman's mission and puts forth ara,l-
ments that must appeal to tl.e common
sense individual of either sex ny reason
able and proper. The author saws. =!
am afraid that absolute equality br;aeen
men an women is impossible. Nature
herself sets her face aga nSt il by the
inherent desire implanted in most wo-
mems breasts, To look up, physically and
mentally, to some one greater than
themselves" &c. This is undoubtedly
dent women who take care of them
selves and acknowledge no man their
superior. Nevertheless, the sex general.
ly is not inclined to independence in
thought and action. The weaker sex"
ia not merely an empty meaningless
phrase. 1t means that constitutlonally
any physically women is not as strong
as men, mentally she may be in certain
instances, for example she may advance
equally with man in study and research
and even surpass him, but when i, comes
to business or the work-a day-world
cares she falls behind in the race except
in rare instances. There are limits laid
down by Nature beyond which woman
cannot pass. Says the author of the
Forum article: Nature means women
ito be not men, or, rather, imitation men
but the mothers of men. l am old
fashiohed enough to believe that every
girls education, mental, moral, physical,
ought to be primarily with a view to
wifehood and motherhood, the highest
and happiest destinity to which any wo-
man can attain. But when Fate denies
them this chiefest blessing, as, consider
ing the large surplus female population
in the world, must often be the case, she
still leaves them the possibility of being
the spiritual mothers of new genera
tion." There is much of practical COM
mon sense in what this writer says on
this subject and We commend the article
to our readers.

The 0ld-TIme Editor.

In his tribute to the "old.tl editor"
at the press banquet, Major Maginnis,
spoke thus of Judge Wilkeson who was
present with his wife. Judge Wilkeson,
after years of hard toll, some of which
he put in at Bozeman, is now pursuing
the centler paths of life near Helena; of
him the Major said:

old-time printer, who did his own think

work, and was always ready to do his

America; who developed it, who pushed

vited its immigration from abroad, and
who not perhaps having hourished him

prosperity; for, alas, it is the curse oi
humanity that men who sell peef and

An Affecting incident.

One of the papers tells story of the
Chatswnrth wreck that has considerable
of interest in ii. The incident as fol.
lows
Mrs. Merriam Grant, one of the peo-
pie wounded in the Chatsworth disaster
was in the rear car with her husband.
In this car was a party of six people. In
order that they might sit together, M i.
and Mrs. Grant changed seats with a
young man and his bride. Their courtesy
saved their lives, for the young couple
were both killed. Mrs. Grant thought
the party were theatrical people or con-
cert singers, they were SO jolly and sang
81 well. They could sing and they laugh
ed and told stories and anticipated the
pleasure of the trip until late at uisht.
Then Mrs. Grant composed herself, in
her chair and covered her face with her
handkerchief to go TO sleep. Nearly
everybody in the car was quiet but the
jolly party of six. About this time the
Young bride was requstcd to sing "Sweet
Hour OF Prayer" Something in the de-
sire to sleep and rest recalled the sweet
old song. The young woman sang and
all listened while the train sped on.
As the little gleam of devilish fire ap.
peared for down the track their voices
swelled in:
yet in my dreams I'd be
Nearer, my God to Thee
The speed, of the train increased down
the grade. Again the song swcllcd:
"There let the way appear, steps unto heaven"
This way already in sight.
"All that Though sendost me, In mercy
given"
And then with but a mpnlnnt uf life

killing off Old Hens.

When one and two years old, the hen
is at her best for egg production. Espe
cially valuable fowls may be kept longer
and make better sitiers than when
Younger. After the flush Of egg rroduc-
ton has stopped, and when they begin
to want to set, is good time to kill
them off. They keep in good flesh
while laying, but rapidly grow thin
when the fever of incubation is on them
so that if net killed promptly they will
not be in condition again until late in
the season. Thinning the flock now
makes room for growing chicks. and on
the farm prevents loss by their ravages
on crops and in the gardens. 1t is a sign
of unthritincss in many ways to see
fowls five, six and even eight years old
about tho premises. They have long
outlived their best usefulness, and
should make way for something better.

What True Merit VIII DO.

The unprecedented sale Of Boschee's
German Syrup within few years, has
astonished the world. 1t is without
doubt the safest and best remedy ever
discovered for the speedy and eiiectual
cure of Coughs, Colds, and the severest
Lung troubles. 1t acts on an entirely
different principle from the usual pre-.
scriptions given by physicians. as it does
not dry up cough and leave the disease
still in the system, but on the contrary
removes the cause Of the trouble, heals
the parts affected and leaves them in n
purely healthy condition. A bottle kept
in the house for use when the diseases
make their appearance, will save doctors
bills and long spell of seri us illness.
A trial will convince you of these facts.
1t is positively sold by all druggists and
general dealers in the land. Price, 10
cts, large bottles.

The Lesson of Fl. Benton.

Some years ago few citizens of TT,
Benton imagined that they had the
whole northwest by the tail and could
swing it about at their pleasure. They
became selfish, as is often the case when
men possess great power, either real or
imaginary. TT. Benton held the key to
the situation, they said, and could die
tate to all the surrounding country.
Acting under this belief the business
men of Ft. Benton undertook to freeze
out every newcomer who had the
audacity to start in business IN their
town. That they succeeded is a well.
known fact, and for years the place has
grown little if any. If little peanut
stand was set up contrary to the wishes
of the bosses, the dictators would set up
another stand by its side and freeze out
its proprietor.
After years of lethargy the leading
citizens of Benton are now making a
desperate effort to recover lost ground
and inaugurate boom, but are meeting
with slim success. The vital hour seems
10 have passed, and the outlook for any
material advancement of the town at
the "head of navigation" Is anything
but encouraging.
The history of Ft. Benton in This re-
spect teaches lesson. Helena and
Spokane Falls are two instances where
the people, under some very discourac
ing periods in the past, have stood as
one erson and worked for the common
good of all. Helena has been conserya-
tive and Spokane speculative, but both
have been hospitable, liberal and pro
gressive. Their remarkable growth is
evidence of the success of their broad
and intelligent policies.
Other towns may profit by these stub
born facts. Missoula, with railroads
building OH every side that may divert
its advantages, must be progressive and
liberal and its people must work har
and industriously. If the
right steps are taken Mssoua's advan.
tages will be augmented by the building
of railroads; if not, its Leverage will
fade away and other towns will usurp its
trade and pervert its growth.-Missoula

An important element of tncsuccess of
Hoods Sarsaparilla is the fact that every
purchaser receives fair equivalent for
his money. The familiar headline 400
Doses One Dollar" stolen b. imitators, is
original with and true only of Hoods
Sarsaparilla. This can easily be proven
by any one who desires to test the mat
ter. For real economy, buy only Hoods

Tho Enrli.h serv,nt.s Duties.

In England the position Of each servant,
and the duties that belong to each ex-
clusively, are clearly marked out and
established. There is q separate servant
for every known and conceivable division
of domestic labor. Each does land will do
no more than what is laid down in the
prescribed and well settled rules Of service.
And it &c not confined, this exclusiyeness
in the matter of work, to those whose
nominal divisions Of labor are in their
character diametrically dissimilar. 1t Is
not that groom or coachman would not,
on occasion or even emergency, be pre-
vailed upon to wash the dishes or make
the beds: or that the kitchenmaid or
housemaid could be expected to go out and
bed down the horses for the night, or clean
the harness. No one could feel surprised
at the refusal Of either. But it is that no
footman could be induced, much less
ordered, to light a fire, or fetch up hot
water to the bedrooms; no butler could bo
cajoled into carrying in tray Of entries,
or carrying out u basket Of dirty plates.
In the one instance the work is the legiti-
mate and sole duty of the housemaid, in
the other that Of the footman.
OF course, speak of large, or fairly
large, establishments; or in small ones,
say three or four servants, the cook may
help to make the beds and .'dO out" the
hall, and the housemaid assist in washing
the dishes. The rules Of q strict division
of labor are not SO strictly enforced and
observed in small establishments as in
large, but there is, nevertheless, fairly
rigid adherence to the exclusively legiti-
mate duties of the particular place in all
households of the gentry. What are
known as general servants, or women
who do general housework" in America,
are called maids of all work" in Eng
land. They are almost without exception
employed in the houses of tradesmen.-

Especial Correspondence. !

LITTLE Rock, Ark, Nov. a--Gen. Albert
Pike, poet, soldier and grand commander Of
the highest council of Masons in the southern
jurisdiction Of that order, was born in 1910
in Boston, Mass He was educated in the
public schools there, and at an early age
moved west, settling at what is now Pine
Bluff, Ark There he spent many years of
his life, owning a fine plantation, with a
large number Of slaves. Taking life easy he
left much to his foreman and planta-
ton superintendents, while he himself
spent his time in reading and writing.
Three volumes Of poems were published
years ago. and his verses had some merit
